Editing is a significant part of telling a story effectively. As an experienced copy editor and proofreader, as well as a prolific writer, I can help finesse your message so it can effectively impact your audience.

Every storyteller needs an editor

I take comedy seriously

 

I have a substantial background in writing sketches, late-night monologue jokes, humor essays, sitcoms, and dramedies, so I particularly love to work with comedic voices. An excellent editor who knows the rhythms of comedy can help punch up your material and ensure that your jokes always land.

I have created, written, and pitched screenplays, TV shows, and web series and had my work produced by major studios. I also have over a decade of experience writing script coverage for production companies, film institutions, and screenplay competitions. I love working one-on-one with writers and giving detailed feedback on how to tighten their scripts.
